Of course, this takes place in New Orleans after the defeat of Dr. Facilier!

Chantelle paused and glanced around the street from her dark alleyway. The road seemed oddly busy today, the perfect time to snatch a few customers. She slunk from her hiding place and leaned herself against the wall, keping an eye out for someone gullible enough to come.

Liliana walked right on past the alleyway in a pink skirt and blouse.She often hurried because she had seen some strange people in the streets of New Orleans often and she had no intentions of running into them.Although,she was quite gullible and it would be difficult NOT to run into someone strange without thinking that maybe they're being honest about not being a strange person.

There was a sudden scream, "HELLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!"

A girl ran right by, screaming her head off. She finally stopped, "Wait, where am I?"

Liliana jumped backwards with a scream.

Chantelle heard the scream, and both her and her shadow jumped with fright. She scowled, narrowing her eyes to the noise. It was just a girl, and rather, a confused looking one.

"I don't offer my services to...idiots," she scoffed to herself, turning away from the street. She flkipped her deck of tarot cards in her hands, thinking lightly to herself.

Molly looked up from her book, wondering what the noise was, though she only saw it was a girl. She sighed and sat back down, once again being completely absorbed in her book.

After a minute of skimming the street, Chantelle's eyes fell upon a red-headed girl. She had her face buried in a book, so automatically she figured she could use a little more excitement. She slid over to the bench as well did her shadow, and swirled her cards in her hand.

She leaned over the bench behind her and grinned. "Say, you look like a girl who needs a little luck," she persuaded smootly, "how about a reading? Free of charge, of course."

Molly closed her book, setting it down on the pavement.

"I don't know you. So I don't trust you." Molly said, folding her hands neatly on her lap.

Chantelle narrowed her eyes, frustrated, but kept her grin. "Aw, come on now," she purred, "that's no way to go about life. Assuming gets you nowhere, trust me." Her voice became sly witht he last two words, almost a snake-like hiss. She was a shady figure, nontheless, but she knew from experience that all people had a little curiousity in them.

"Now, you're just creeping me out," Molly said, grabbing her book and standing up.

Nilly popped out of a trashcan, "HI PEOPLE! DID YOU SEE THE CHICKEN CAR GO BY!??!?!"

Molly yelped, and ran into her house, locking the door. Dumb little child. She thought setting her books down.

Nilly grinned.

Liliana continued down the road.

Nilly's stomach growled, "I is hungry"

Helena walked through the street in a green dress, looking for something exciting to do. She was bored, and needed something to keep her occupies. Sighing, she plopped down on a nearby bench, and noticing another woman close to her age, holding a deck of tarot cards, waved. Mabye she could make a new friend.
